Where in Carolina Country is This?

January 2018

The January Where Is This photo from Tideland EMC member Bill Clopton features the Captain Cecil fishing boat anchored near Garland Fulcher Seafood along Racoon Creek in Oriental. Many readers commented that they have similar photos of the docks. More than 150 readers correctly identified the town these docks are located in, while more than 100 readers picked other similar fishing docks up and down the North Carolina coast: from Calabash, Holden Beach, Southport, Shallotte, Varnamtown and Wilmington near the southern border, mid-coast towns of Morehead City, Beaufort, Salter Path and Sneads Ferry, to Englehard, Hobucken, Swanquarter and Wanchese north of Oriental — even received an entry for Sneel Fair, New Jersey. The winning entry chosen at random from all the correct submissions came from Kevin Holden of Supply, a Brunswick EMC member.
